Notes
The author's work on ricâlu'l-ghayb. On the cover sheet of the single-leaf concise work, it is written: "This treatise of Sheikh Ali, known as the sheikh of the shrine -rahimehullah- is about the rijal-i 'ghayb." This concise treatise is not generally mentioned among Ali Dede's works in the tabaqat type works. However, based on its content, there is no doubt that it belongs to Ali Dede. The time and place of compilation of the treatise, which was written in prose and Arabic, is not specified. The content of the work is as follows: After the Bismillah, praise and salvela, theoretical explanations are made about the "qutb". It is stated that the Qutb is the caliph over the entire universe and that he is a single person, that is, Hâtem-i Enbiyâ, that is, our Prophet. It is stated that the prophets sent before him and the saints acted as his regents after he entered the unseen world. Then, the numbers and some characteristics of the unseen saints, which are among the issues of Sufism, are expressed in a brief manner. Here is the source of the author; It is İbnü'l-Arabî's el-Fütûhâtü'l-Mekkiyye, which he mentions with adjectives such as "kutbu'l-evliyâ" and "hâtemü'l-velâye". Then, an attempt is made to prove the issues mentioned with a sacred hadith. Then, why "ebdâl" or "büdelâ" was given this name is explained based on the word "bedel", which is the etymological root of the word. Finally, after quoting a few verses indicating monotheism, the treatise is completed with the prayer "May God make us and you benefit from their secrets." The only copy of the work, of which there is no copy in Turkish Libraries, is in the Sarajevo Oriental Institute Library. It has been reported by the library authorities that the aforementioned treatise, which was numbered 904 in the catalog before the 1992 fire, is numbered 83 in the current catalogue. For the biography of the poet, see. “Ali Dede, Bosnevi”. Dictionary of Turkish Literature Names.
